x-show-tip currently supports offsets.. If your point is all the way at the
bottom right of the screen you will have to use a negative offset to keep from
putting the tooltip off of the screen.
This could be done by figuring out the text when inserted in a temp buffer.
Someone on #emacs just gave me an interesting idea as to an impl and I am
playing with that now.... it might actually work!
